> GCB gives, even while DST taketh away. ABC: GCB is a very bad show, but not an unpopular one. Its 2.3 inched up over last week’s premiere, at least in preliminary numbers, and seemed to squeak out a timeslot victory, by 0.1 over NBC and 0.2 over CBS. It still looks awfully weak to […]
A pair of annual events returned. DEMOGRAPHIC DETAIL: For each broadcast program (or hour segment), the chart below displays preliminary live+same day key advertiser demographics (adult 18-34, 18-49 and 25-54 ratings), audience skews (women 18-49, men 18-49 and adults 50+ shares) and total viewership (thousands of people over the age of 2).

> Viewers didn’t flee from The B—. ABC: DON’T TRUST THE B— IN APT 23 held almost the same proportion of the MODERN FAMILY audience as it did with last week’s premiere (and a slightly higher percentage than the last time Happy Endings aired after a new Family), which is a very good sign. Unfortunately […]

Ratings analysis and comparisons […]
We don’t have numbers for The Newsroom yet, but the show certainly won’t be able to blame the broadcast network competition if its ratings disappoint. NBC: The network won the night with 1.2s across the board, including the US OLYMPIC TRIALS (down a bit from 4 years ago), DATELINE, and AMERICA’S GOT TALENT repeats. ABC: […]
BLUE BLOODS returned from a month off. DEMOGRAPHIC DETAIL: For each broadcast program (or hour segment), the chart below displays preliminary live+same day key advertiser demographics (adult 18-34, 18-49 and 25-54 ratings), audience skews (women 18-49, men 18-49 and adults 50+ shares) and total viewership (thousands of people over the age of 2).

No one watches TV on Labor Day. NBC: The post-Olympics scheduling experiment reached its nadir, as STARS EARN STRIPES hit a new low 0.9 in its finale, and GRIMM‘s 1.4 was down 0.2 from last week and just even with its numbers on low-rated Friday last season. (The network also aired some notably confusing promos […]
You say you want a Revolution. NBC: REVOLUTION, coming off its best episode thus far, leaped up 0.4 from last week to 3.4, making it by a substantial margin the biggest 10PM hit on broadcast TV. Its lead-in from THE VOICE was steady at 4.8, and the Revolution number was even more impressive because it […]
